Dr John D'Arcy still looking for buyer after Beecroft home passed in

The Beecroft home of original TV doctor Dr John D'Arcy and wife Wendy O'Donnell remains for sale after it didn't sell at its scheduled auction last weekend.

The property, which has been the family residence for the last 36 years, had a price guide of $2.2 million, but now the indication is seeking offers over $1.9 million 

It was bought by the couple in 1985 for $164,000.

Set on 1,710 square metres, the three storey, five bedroom home has been renovated over the last 12 years.

The formal lounge and dining areas flow to outdoor living spaces.

Di Jones Real Estate agent David Meldrum is marketing the home as the couple look to downsize.

Dr D'Arcy became a household name some 30 years ago when he combined his medical career with a regular spot on the Seven Network's Beyond 2000 program.

More recently he has been medical editor for Sunrise.
